So some guy, stefan, has been good enough to post detailed instructions on how to fix the H07 (HO7 or HOT) error that our DVD player (the Panasonic DVD-RP62) has been experiencing. Essentially, all the oil on the motor's spindle has gone dry and the motor gets to hot too fast. (I have cached a copy of the page with instructions just in case you come here via Google and the page linked to above no longer works. The cache is here.)

Apparently, the best solution to this problem (if it's worth the time, and I don't think it is) is to replace the spindle motor with something else (from this form post):

i have repaired about 9 of these units ,the problem is with one of the three coils in the spindel it shorts sending BAdriver chip in to thermal shutdown . replace with 5.9/6volt low profile 1/2 spindel ,almost any spindel motor with thoes specs will work.
